A photorealistic classroom station centers on student hands assembling a small wooden bridge spanning two blocks. A laminated instruction card with colorful icon panels is visible but unreadable; scattered craft sticks, tape, a hot glue gun and small weights lie nearby while a smartphone photographs the finished bridge. Subtle ruler marks, soft natural light and shallow depth of field create a clean, editorial composition suitable for an article.
  • Station number and title
  • Competence goal (student-friendly): “By the end of this station you will be able to…”
  • Task (clear, step-by-step; 2–5 steps)
  • Time allowed
  • Materials provided (and what students must bring)
  • Success criteria / checklist (3–4 bullet points; use measurable verbs)
  • Extension task (for fast learners)
  • Support options (sentence stems, diagram templates, simplified worksheet)
  • Assessment checkpoint: “Turn this in / show me / photograph” (what counts as evidence)

Example front-of-card short version:
